Benefits of technology

[0009]One particular advantage provided by at least one of the disclosed embodiments is an intuitive operation of a multi-panel electronic device in which a web browser communicates changes in screen size or screen resolution to a web server and automatically refreshes to display modified web page content that is modified by the web server in accordance with the changes.

Problems solved by technology

Although such portable devices may support software applications, the usefulness of such portable devices is limited by a size of a display screen of the device.
However, smaller display screens limit an amount of content that can be displayed to a user and may therefore reduce a richness of the user's interactions with the portable device.

Embodiment Construction

[0080]Referring to FIG. 1, a first illustrated embodiment of an electronic device is depicted and generally designated 100. The electronic device 101 includes a first panel 102, a second panel 104, and a third panel 106. The first panel 102 is coupled to the second panel 104 along a first edge at a first fold location 110. The second panel 104 is coupled to the third panel 106 along a second edge of the second panel 104, at a second fold location 112. Each of the panels 102, 104, and 106 includes a display surface configured to provide a visual display, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen. The electronic device 101 is a wireless communication device having multiple display surfaces and configured to automatically adjust a user interface or to display images when a user changes a physical configuration of the electronic device 101.

[0081]As depicted in FIG. 1 the first panel 102 and the second panel 104 are rotatably coupled at the first fold location 110 to enable a variety...

Abstract

In a particular embodiment, a method includes detecting a hardware configuration change at an electronic device. The electronic device includes at least a first panel having a first display surface and a second panel having a second display surface. An effective screen size or a screen resolution corresponding to a viewing area that includes the first display surface and the second display surface is modified in response to the hardware configuration change. The method also includes sending at least one parameter associated with or based on the modified effective screen size or the modified screen resolution to a server.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present disclosure claims the benefit of Provisional Application No. 61 / 095,225, filed Sep. 8, 2008, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety and to which priority is claimed.FIELD[0002]The present disclosure is generally related to communication of changes in screen size or screen resolution of one or more displays of a multi-panel electronic device to a server.DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART[0003]Advances in technology have resulted in smaller and more powerful computing devices. For example, there currently exist a variety of portable personal computing devices, including wireless computing devices, such as portable wireless telephones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and paging devices that are small, lightweight, and easily carried by users. More specifically, portable wireless telephones, such as cellular telephones and internet protocol (IP) telephones, can communicate voice and data packets over wireless networ...
